Pete Doherty has been released from Jail

Today Pete Doherty has walked free from Wormwood Scrubs prison in London. Pete has only served 29 days of his 14-week sentence for breaching his probation.

It’s said that Pete told reporters he was glad to be out. He said that “Well, I knew it was going to be a bit rough to start with, with the overcrowding and the medical facilities, although they do their best – they are good – they can’t really cater for the average junkie.”

While Pete was in jail he was serving his sentence in segregation after claims that other prisoner’s tryed to attack him. It has been said that his early release was part of a scheme to reduce overcrowding in the prisons.

Pete’s early release means that he is now free to play on the Park Stage at the Glastonbury Festival in June.
